Managing Domestic Dissent in First World War Britain
ISBN: 9780714650548 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The author argues that the way the British Government managed dissent during World War I is important for understanding the way that the war ended. He argues that, from humble beginings in 1914, a comprehensive and effective system of suppression had been developed by the war's end in 1918, with a still greater level of suppression prepared but not implemented. The general characteristics of the system of dissent manage ment were that it was incremental, growing in proportion to the degree of apprehended threat to the war effort; it never became more repressive than a working consensus of the...

The Ill-Made Alliance: Anglo-Turkish Relations, 1934-1940
ISBN: 9780773516038 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While previous accounts suggest that Turkey entered into the alliance reluctantly, Millman contends that it not only wanted an alliance but sought as close a relationship as Britain would concede in the prewar years.

Pessimism and British War Policy, 1914-1918
ISBN: 9780714650791 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This analysis of British war policy considers alterations to the grand strategy during the last years of World War I. The argument is that war policy in this period was strongly affected by pessimism, even defeatism. In the aftermath of the defeats and disappointments of 1917, many could understand how the war could be lost, less how victory could be achieved. By the end of 1917, war policy had been revised so that it aimed less to win the war outright than to bring Germany to the conference table in a less exultant mood, whilst laying the bases for a peripheral war, essentially victorious on...

British Somaliland: An Administrative History, 1920-1960
ISBN: 9780415717458 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. British Somaliland provides a history of the administration of the British Somaliland Protectorate from the time when Somaliland first became governable, following the defeat of Abdullah Hassan, to independence. Describing the interplay between general imperial policies, and greater realities and developments in Somaliland, the focus of the book remains on the mechanism by which the Protectorate was operated. The regime that developed was, in the end, a highly autocratic despotism, generally benign but occasionally predatory. Independence, when it arrived, was, in retrospect, a tragedy....
